Who this racket is for
The drop shot flame soft targets advanced players with consolidated technique who want more performance without yet moving to a pure competition racket. Its round shape concentrates the sweet spot in the center of the face, increasing tolerance and favouring control. With a low balance, it gains maneuverability and quick response at the net. The soft hardness provides feel and helps ball exit for players with slower swing speed. Its 360-375g weight range places it in the medium-weight group, the most common among amateur players.
